How to Make a Mini Message Board

Step 1: Ask a grown-up to help you cut a piece of cardboard 5-1/4 x 4-1/2 inches. Trace this rectangle onto the back of a piece of sandpaper; cut out using scissors. Glue the sandpaper onto the cardboard; let dry.

Step 2: Glue craft sticks around the edges of the sandpaper; let dry.

Step 3: Cut a magnet sheet just smaller than the message board, and adhere to the back.

Wash clean with a damp paper towel when you're done.
